Director and Writer Ryan Johnson continues to share the details of the eighth episode of "Star Wars" even three years after the premiere. This time the creator of the "last Jedi" told fans in Twitter, which at a certain stage of development he had an idea to return Heiden Kristensen to the image of Anakin Skywalker.
The scene could occur in a nostalgic episode by the fire, when the hatch as a ghost is Magister iodine. According to Johnson, Christensen was initiated instead of a puppet character in the frame, but he refused this idea, because with a small Jedi Master at the hero, Mark Hamille, a brighter emotional connection, and the presence of Anakin would significantly complicate the moment:
"It was an idea for the scene with a burning tree, but in the past, the hatch basically dealt with Vader, and not with Anakin. And it would noticeably more complicated the plot than the scene required. It was for this that the episode of iodine looked more convincing advice. "
